What's a good XBox controller to make into a stick?
« on: March 20, 2005, 04:31:51 pm »
I was planning on making my own XBox stick, but I was wondering what a good and relatively common controller that has large solder points (Since this would be my very first soldering experience). While I'm at it, what is a good PS2 controller to use for the same purpose?

Thanks

I bought the Pelican Universal Real Arcade Stick. It comes some pretty cool button that only need cherry switches added to them. Also the joystick is OK. They are only $30 and come with adapters for Xbox, PS2 and GameCube.
